third embodiment

FIG. 7 is a side view showing a volute spring and FIG. 9 is a development of the volute spring. The same reference numerals as those of FIG. 1 are used in the figures so that detailed explanations are omitted.

A securing tab 21 is projected from the base cylinder 4 in the horizontal direction for securing the volute spring 1 to the frame 3. A triangular engaging projection 21a is formed on the tab 21.

FIG. 10 is a plan view showing an insertion operation of the volute spring 1 in an electronic instrument, and FIG. 11 is a sectional view showing an inserted condition.

As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, in a frame 22 made of resin, a pair of holes 23 are formed for the volute spring 1. As shown in FIG. 10, in each hole 23, a slit 24 is formed in a radial direction of the hole. The volute spring 1 is inserted in the hole 23, engaging the triangular engaging projection 21a with the inside wall of the hole 23. Thus, volute spring 1 is fixed to the frame 22. As shown in FIG. 11, the volute spring...

Abstract

An electric connector has a frame made of insulation, and a double-ended volute spring composed by an outermost base cylinder, and a pair of volute spring portions extending from the base cylinder so as to be contact with terminals of an electronic instrument. The base cylinder is secured in a hole formed in the frame.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONThe present invention relates to an electric connector for an electronic instrument such as a portable telephone.In the portable telephone, a microphone is connected to terminals on a circuit substrate by electric connectors. In a conventional portable telephone, the microphone is connected to terminals by coil springs. The coil spring is compressed between a terminal of the microphone and a terminal of the substrate so as to connect both the terminals.However, there in a problem that when the coil spring is compressed, the position of the end of the coil deviates from a desired position. In order to ensure the connection, the terminal must be formed into a large size, which obstructs the miniaturization of the telephone.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONAn object of the present invention is to provide an electric connector which may exactly connect terminals at a mall connecting area.According to the present invention, there is provided an electric connector compri...
